I’m not sure what mad impulse compelled me to do that. I’ve never felt comfortable showing my art to anyone, and certainly not someone I’ve only known a couple of weeks. Nico, who so often has only acerbic things to say, could very easily have torn me apart just now. Instead, he’d seemed almost awed, and went so far as to ask to keep the damn thing. I should have taken my time, really put in a good effort. Maybe I’ll ask him if I can redo it.
